1.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 5/20
Golden and the flavour is like mixed-candy sweets with a touch of elder flower. It taste like vingummi (doesn’t know the English word, but it’s a kind of candy) that have been mixed with hops. PERHAPS it would be OK with a piece of cake, but I doubt it...

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20

2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
A hazy orange beer with no head. The aroma is dominated by elderberries. The flavor is sweet - too sweet for me - and rather artificial with a dry end with lots of elderberries. This is too much for me.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
I must admnit that I liked this beer quite a lot. Golden coloured. Aroma mainly of strawberries rather than elderberries. Refreshing, fruity and flowery. Slightly perfumated.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottled at Jerusalem Tavern, London.
Huuhhh, this is different stuff. Hazy golden color, small head. Aroma is like berry chewing gum and very strange for a beer. Flavor is very sweet at first but has a bitter follow-up. Very candy-like and artificial with this curious hoppy bitterness. I really don't know if I like it or not.
0.7 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 1/20
Pasteurised Bottle. BBE Jul 2004. Foul! Undrinkable. The fruit smell, like cough syrup, is mingled with cardboard hops and a touch of vomit. And the taste is like the aroma - only more intense, very bitter and more vulgar. Add to that a prickly carbonation and you have possibly the worse beer in the world.
